Best practices for first time personal watercraft riders

Handy tips on your first time out on the water.

When it comes to using your personal water craft (PWC) for the first
time, the key words to remember are preparation and safety.
Don’t just jump in and get your feet wet before following the helpful tips below. The more prepared you are
now, the more fun and thrills you can safely have later out there on the water.

Become very familiar with its operation and maintenance before you put it in the water for the
first time by reading the owner’s manual.

Be aware that most PWC’s have greatly diminished or no steering without application of throttle.
